No More Double Standard Dammit (2.00 / 5)

You go after one candidate you go after ALL of them or you start talking about your own experience and qualifications.

The Alternative for the Dems on Iraq: Richardson (none / 0)

Obama is giving HRC a run for the money as the Great Triangulator. Obama could be running away with the nomination if he would have been a strong advocate against the war when he took office. Instead, he voted for war funding bill after another. Read Tom Hayden's recent commentary:

There is a Democratic candidate for President that says as long as U.S. troops are stationed in Iraq the hard work of reconciliation among Iraqi factions is postponed. He has called for a withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq now, pledges to bring all U.S. troops (both combat and non-combat) home promptly upon taking office and has offered a plan to achieve this.

This candidate is being advised by military and diplomatic experts that have been highly critical of the U.S. intervention in the Iraq and strongly advocate an immediate exit from Iraq.

Whom is this candidate? His name is Bill Richardson.

Bill Richardson: "Get out now. Get all our troops out now. It is the only right and responsible choice."
